In November 2008, the U.S. Department of Defense’s computer network was infected with a virus, specifically engineered to run on USB flash drives and other types of removable media. This caused the military to issue a ban on all types of removable media, including thumb drives, MP3 players, and even cell phones.
The ban came at a huge inconvenience for people in this arm of the government who had become accustomed to using USB flash drives as a means for storing and transporting data. Technical manuals for machinery, mission plans, and medical records were all being stored at the time on these drives.
We do a lot of talking here on this blog about things like how USB flash drives can be used for business promotions, as a CD alternative or how you can manage your workflow on USB. All of this discussion how USB pen drives can be applied to your daily life or marketing is fine and good, but let’s look back at the technology which “drives” these modern day floppy disks and see where the technology is headed.
